"It is in conjunction with the cruise line which includes one day at the Holiday In in Clarkston, WA just across the river.The highlight of the cruise is the separately booked jet boat ride on the Snake River...."Read More
I would like to start with what was good about the cruise. Two individuals stood out on our cruise. Angelica was so personable and engaging on the patio deck. Connie, the server in the dining room was very attentive and and friendly. The rooms were ok. The exploration ports were fine. Enjoyed the Mount St. Helens tour. Has a great time on the Hell Canyon boat trip. So now I will share how poor the ...
I used Boton to sail from because Clarkston was not there. So disregard the embarkation port. We have been on 55 Ocean cruises and 5 River Boat cruises which gives us the ability to critique this cruise. We sailed from Clarkston, Wa to Portland, OR. on October 13, 2022. VERY DISAPPOINTED! American Cruise Lines has been in business since 1972 and you would have thought they just started doing ...
We have wanted to take the Snake and Columbia river cruise covering the area that Lewis and Clark traveled in the early 1800s. We sailed on the American Cruise Line Harmony which was very disappointing. The line was very disorganized and the staff very inexperienced. Tours were changed or eliminated without notice until the last minute. The trip was pricey and not worth the cost. We could ...
We sailed on The Columbia & Snake river on American Harmony!! From the minute we arrived at the ship the deck crew met and carried our luggage directly to our stateroom, no waiting. Unpacking when well with ample storage space and closet. Each stateroom comes with a balcony, two chairs and a table.
The crew was outstanding, from John Moretta the Hotel General Manager (who we had the privilege ...
American Cruise Line (ACL) has mastered small ship cruising in America; great ships, great themed cruises, better than great food, and wonderful American crews. This cruise focused on the Lewis and Clark Expedition and opening of the Oregon Territory. ACL begins with on-board lectures about what Lewis and Clark did at the next day’s port, this helped set up the guided tours. We had Nez Perce ...
We have worked and traveled all over the world; we now want to see the USA. We think American Cruise Line (ACL) has a working model of how to do this. Great ships, great itineraries, great on-board entertainment, and young, invigorated American crews.
We have been on 4 ACL boats; the food has always been good, but Chef Q's kitchen did wonders this trip. Every meal was a treat, and Chef Q ...
A great chance to learn more about Lewis & Clark's expedition from a knowledgeable historian. He was a fun and interesting presenter with lots of photos. The evening entertainers were, for the most part, not our cup of tea but lots of folks seemed to really enjoy them. We were quite comfortable relaxing in our room or in on of the many lounge areas.
The Snake & Columbia Rivers locks were quite ...
Embarkation: Was Clarkston, but it was not listed, so noted above is the disembarkation.
Cruise ship: unclean and unfortunately COVID ridden. Got most of us sick and they failed to advise us that there was a break-out. The rumor was that they only notified those folks in close proximity of those that were sick. Really, we ALL shared the same limited space! They never sanitized. Even more ...
This was an amazing cruise from every aspect! Great facilities, wonderful suite, excellent food, excellent staff, excellent excursions, etc. And that is just to name a few!
The river itself is beautiful and ever changing!
There are opportunities for great excursions in every port. (We were in a different port each day.) We also had great opportunities for onboard activities. I was in a ...
Our journey on the Columbia and Snake Rivers was fabulous. Small ship cruising is definitely for us! We had a sense of intimacy not available on our other cruises: no long lines getting on and off, wonderful American young people on the crew willing and able to help, getting to know both passengers and crew, delicious food (I even had several desserts for lunch one day – next day was salad so ...
